Update on My Daughter

I know that everyone was waiting for pictures of my daughter but you will have to wait just a few days longer. For some reason the computer that the pics are on will not let me connect to the internet even though it says I have a connection.....grrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

I know it is probably something simple but I will have more time to spend on it Monday morning....until then ya'll will just have to wait.

CD....I am still planning on posting part three of Bubble Baths and Handguns.....just been a little busy lately. Perhaps Monday also....

Love to all

I Need A Drink

I haven't updated my blogs for almost a week so I figured I had better write something before CD comes after me. Life has been pretty chaotic lately, with the kids starting back at school and moving into the new house I have had little time for anything other than homework and unpacking.

The good news is that the kids are falling back into their homework routine quickly and I only have 3-5 boxes left to unpack and a ton of family pictures to hang, but then I am done. I will hopefully get back into the swing of writing daily again.

I did delete my pit bull blog because I don't have time to keep up with the other two and that one required a lot of research and factual writing.

Right now I am thinking about how badly I would love to go have a drink after work and sit in the corner observing the other patrons and making notes on their little quirks. They way they hold their drink, or what they do with their hands when they are not holding a drink. The body language between them, they way they speak or how they just sit there staring at nothing.

I have had the pleasure of finally speaking to a friend I made online and hearing this person's voice was such a joy. You always wonder if people will sound like you think they do and fortunately this person and I agreed that each sounded just as the other thought they would. There are many people I have met online who I would love to just call up and chat with. I have grown to depend on their support and encouragement.

So I think I have rambled enough for now. I will try and get down to some serious writing in the very near future. Perhaps working more on some stories.

Till then ya'll

It'll be easy, fun, virtually painless and you'll enjoy it. :DAnyone else up for an interview? See my blog and leave a comment!





1. If you could be a famous landmark not person in history what would you be and why?
A. Famous landmark...Vietnam Veterans Memorial. It is something that has always inspired so many emotions in me. Fear..of it happening again, Anger...at the way our veterans were treated then, Sorrow...for all of those that were lost and Admiration...for every name on there and what they sacrificed for this country.

2. What has been the most influential thing that you have done in your life that you consider a major accomplishment for you?
A. My children....I often think that if I hadn't had them I never would have turned my life away from the dark path I was headed down with drugs and crime. They made me want to be a better person and because of them I am.



3. Most embarassing time in your life that you can remember and please include the details?
A. The day I had to tell my children I was going to jail for a DUI. A lot of people critizied me for even telling them that I got a DUI, muchless telling them that I was going to jail that morning because of it. But I do not hide my flaws from my children. They need to know that no one is unfallable, even their parents, and I want them to learn from my mistakes. But having to look them in the eyes, hug them and tell them that I was going to jail was heartbreaking. It was embarrassing to have them have to see that and know that mom had made such a stupid mistake.

4. If you could hold a high ranking job title such as President, or vice president, or any other high titled job what would you choose and why do you think you would be a good candidate? A.I don't think I would want any of those jobs. My ideal "power" jobwould be being in charge of a charity that helps single moms and dads get back on their feet.



5. Who is the one person you would love to meet and how would you spend your day with that person details?

Hmmm.....this is a tough one. I would love to meet David Mech the wolf researcher. I would spend the day with him in the wild, observing the world's most beautiful and loing creatures.
